Combat/Tactics: Artemis is a consummate warrior, combining his ambidexterity, thieving training, and warriors weapon skills to be one of the most dangerous swordsman in the Realms. Few men indeed could have so repeatedly crossed blades with Drizzt Do'Urden and lived to tell of it.
Artemis is a tactical master, taking every advantage offered him and seeking to create more. He'll often do this by taunting his foe into anger and mistakes. Artemis is also a very fast learner. If he observes a particular combat maneuver even a few times, he can add it to his own deadly repertoire.

Allies/Companions: Pasha Pook and the thieves' and assassins' guilds of Calimport. At various times in his past Artemis has also temporarily worked with the following persons: Sydney, Jierdan (whom he later killed), and Bok of the Arcane Brotherhood, Jarlaxle and Bregan D'aerthe; and even Catti-Brie and Drizzt when corcumstances forced Artemis to cooperate with his drow nemesis and the human woman in order to escape the city of Menzoberranzan.

Foes/Enemies: Drizzt Do'Urden (seldom have two been so closely matched and yet so different; the drow ranger truly is Artemis's archenemy), Catti-Brie, Bruenor Battlehammer, Regis, Wulfgar, and the drow of Menzoberranzan.

Appearance: A small man, Artemis is compact and all wiry muscle. He is possessed of angular features, striking high cheekbones, and heavy facial growth--though he is clean shaven, Artemis always seems to need a shave. His raven black hair is thick and full, but his eyes are gray and lifeless--betraying the emptiness of his life and his soul.

Personality: Artemis is a professional and always has an air of control about him. Every move he makes or word he speaks is calculated to achieve a desired effect. He never allows emotions or the circumstances--no matter how dire--to master him. In this, he's nearly as determined as Drizzt. He tirelessly maintains himself in top condition, and constantly seeks to improve his martial skills, again just as his drow nemesis does. Artemis also is terribly cunning, able to outthink as well as outfight his opponents.
One aspect of his professionalism that is rare in a man whose business is killing is that Artemis never kills unless it's necessary. While Regis and Catti-Brie were his prisoners (separately), Artemis had any number of opportunities to murder them, yet he did not do so.

Locales Frequented: Icewind Dale, the Sword Coast, Calimport, Menzoberranzan, and locals between these far-flung points.

Motivations/Goals: The greatest challenge Artemis has found in his entire life is in the person of Drizzt Do'Urden. In many ways, his efforts to defeat the drow ranger have become his mission in life.
Whether Artemis can get past this is likely to decide the future course of his life. Perhaps he'll seek another challenge, one to take his mind off the still unresolved (as they're both still alive) rivalry with Drizzt. This might mean returning to Calimport or striking out in a new direction, giving Artemis a chance to start fresh.

Campaign Uses: As is true with any well-defined character, finding out Artemis's motives and desires plays a huge part in deciding his next move.
If Artemis is unable to resolve his rivalry with Drizzt, he'd likely assume a plan (and perhaps a group of allies to occupy the drow's friends so that he and Drizzt can finally finish their business). This group might take the form of hand-picked individuals, a mercenary band, or even members of an evil organization with interests in the North. Both the Knights of the Shield and the Kraken Society qualify as potential partners.
Or Artemis might wander the Realms, seeking a new challenge to take his mind off his past. He could set up shop in the campaign area, perhaps trying to organize his own thieves' and assassins' guild.
